From Forest To Classroom Fundraiser
Every year, the OOO Farms Wild Food Festival in collaboration with The Locavore celebrates the incredible food knowledge of Adivasi communities from the Sahyadris—communities that have safeguarded wild food traditions across generations. But beyond the delicious forest-foraged ingredients and joyful dancing, this festival is deeply rooted in relationships.
This year, we're asking you to support something equally important: the children from the very communities that make the festival possible.
The fundraiser supports Prabha Hira Gandhi High School, Vadoli, Maharashtra, attended by children from the Kokni, Warli, and Mahadeo Koli communities—many of whom belong to the same families who bring wild foods, crafts, and performances to the festival each year.
We are raising funds for building Two New Girls' Toilets with Running Water, Pole Vault Sports Equipment, Stationery and Textbooks + Wild Food Learning Materials among other things for the 120 children of the school.

WILD FOOD FESTIVAL
OOO Farms is a Social Venture with roots in Sustainable Chemical-Free Farming in Maharashtra & South Gujarat, Supporting Directly and Indirectly more then 2200 Tribal Farmers. We are also working towards Conserving Forests, it's Food & the Tribal Community connected to them.
The OOO Farms’ Wild Food Festival is a vibrant celebration of tribal culture and indigenous wild foods found in Maharashtra during monsoons. This unique event brings together city- dwellers, adivasi communities (such as Kokni, Warli, Mahadeo Koli, Katkari and Bhil) and domain experts to spotlight Maharashtra’s rich natural biodiversity and the resulting culinary heritage and the communities that play a vital role in preserving these traditional foods.
The OOO Farms’ Wild Food Festival is hosted in collaboration with The Locavore, an organization committed to creating lasting impact and championing a local, Indian food movement headed by Chef Thomas Zacharias. The Locavore has actively supported the OOO Farms’ Wild Food Festival and has extended a lot of love and camaraderie to the OOO Farms Movement.
This year, the Wild Food Festival has found its home at the Bunts Sangha's Ramanath Payyade College of Hospitality Management Studies (RPH) in Kurla, Mumbai. This unique collaboration fosters cultural exchange and enriches the learning experience of culinary students to appreciate the value of indigenous foods, their consumption, and the importance of their preservation.
The OOO Farms’ Wild Food Festival 2025 aims to create a space where city-dwellers, students, tribal community members, domain experts, and food enthusiasts can come together, learn from one another, and collectively celebrate the rich culinary diversity of Maharashtra's tribal heritage.
